HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS NOVEMBER 6, 2024 HR-2024-106503 TRAVIS HEIGHTS-FAIRVIEW PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 1106 TRAVIS HEIGHTS BOULEVARD 10.0 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a rear two-story addition and detached guest house. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Remodel interior of main one-story house, retaining the front half of the exterior intact. 2) Construct a two-story rear addition along with a roof deck. Two decks and a screened porch are also included. 3) Demolish existing garage and rebuild as a one-story guest house. 4) Construct an at-grade basement at the rear slope of the addition. ARCHITECTURE The house at 1106 Travis Height Boulevard is a one-story symmetrical bungalow of modest size. The concrete front porch is set above the already elevated plot of land that slopes down significantly towards the street and sidewalk. A projecting front gable covers the middle third of the porch and is supported by decorated wood posts resting on two concrete bases. The decoration at these posts matches the wood handrail that is present around the remainder of the porch. Two pairs of windows, one on each side of the front door, are present and are covered with what appear to be original screens over windows. Behind the projection over the porch is a side gabled roof featuring a brick chimney at one side, along with an obscured front gable facing the street and featuring an attic vent. All architectural features at the front of the house appear to be original or highly appropriate replacements. RESEARCH Beginning with its construction sometime prior to 1920, the property had frequent turnover of owners and renters until the late 1940s. This included a second address, 1106½ Travis Heights Boulevard, on the property, which housed various tradespeople during the Great Depression. In 1949, the property was purchased by Jesse & Emma Raven, who were owners and operators of Raven’s Garage, a local auto repair business. They held the property for several decades, until the mid- 1980s, at which point they were retired. The secondary unit was lost or converted at some point during the Raven’s ownership. DESIGN STANDARDS The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential additions 1. Location The addition is located at the rear of the main …

1106 Travis Heights Blvd. Historic Landmark Commission/ARC 25 October, 2024 TO: RE: We are submitting revised drawings and combination photographs/models per the comments discussed at the Architectural Review Committee. The Committee members recommended that the small, square Primary Bath window be re- shaped or removed because it conflicted with the proportions of the existing house windows on the front (east) side. We removed it completely from the front (east) facade and relocated it to the south wall. They also recommended that we simplify the exterior roof stair so that it served as more of a background to the existing front facade. To simplify it we changed it from a metal railing with individual pickets to a nearly solid mesh as shown in the attached drawings and photos. Thank you.
